This organisation provides a team of experienced ringers for the Cathedral tower bells and fosters local interest in the art of change ringing, as well as being a mix of mild exercise, team-work, and mental challenge in learning the "methods". The team meets regularly for practice on Wednesday evenings from 7.30pm - 9.00pm, and Sunday service ringing from 9.25am - 10.20am, and events outside Dunblane are a regular occurence, mainly organised by the Scottish Association of Change Ringers. Those new to ringing, of any age, can be taught from scratch.
